After building a sandcastle for a crab, Miranda is dismayed when the crab escapes to the water and the sea demolishes her castle. Mama helps her understand that some things belong together--the crab and the ocean, the castle and the sand, and, most importantly, Mama and Miranda. Printed collages, described in an endnote, add distinctive textures to illustrations for this satisfying, evocative story.
